Dear parents of students in 6th-8th grades,

Exciting news – we are heading to Mepkin Abbey on a field study trip on October 9!

The goal is to explore and engage in the daily routines of a monastery and gain insight into its connection with the Middle Ages, which corresponds to our first semester curriculum. This visit is an essential part of the research phase of the unit project. Students will formulate inquiries pertaining to monastic life and we will have a time for reflection featuring selected biblical passages.

Students should:

  • Bring their question guide to complete during our visit.
  • Bring their lunch to enjoy outside the monastery. *Please do not order from Food for Thought for this day.
  • Wear the Field Study uniform – the lime-green CBA shirt paired with khaki pants or skirts; shorts are NOT permitted.

 

Field Study Date: 10/09/24

Address: 1098 Mepkin Abbey Rd, Moncks Corner, SC 29461

We will leave CBA at 8:45am and arrive back to CBA at 1:00pm.

Cost: $7.00/student

Transportation: Chaperones’ personal vehicles

 

Please complete the permission slip below and submit payment via Venmo @charlestonbilingualacademy BEFORE 10/7/24.

Inspiring world changers together,
The CBA 6th-8th Grade Teachers
